    Technically, any cover with Wonder Woman would qualify, but this requires a regal one:

    Ok I've always had a thing for the Legion and Manapul. And I liked this particular incarnation of Projectra.

    Wish I knew what her status was right now, as well as the rest of the Legion, but no one really does. Well, except for Saturn Girl, sort of.

    Congratulations to Tami for a marvelous cover showing the first female icon of the Star Wars universe. She certainly grew up as character, or more accurately, we and her creators grew up.

    As to what the captain has learned this week, he has been reacclimated to the romance of the royalty fantasy world. Overall, it's very similar to the superhero fantasy where a common person longs for power to accomplish tasks. We see much overlap here between royalty and superheroing, but even in this modern time, the urge to be king or queen seems to be more socially acceptable than throwing on a cape and flying around the world. That is something I do NOT understand, but it is a complicated world out there.
